who knew the sun was as dark as the night sky?

breathe

i see the
blue sky
above us
and i see
you on grass
next to me
your eyes closed
and breathing slow
so peaceful
yet i blurt out :
"i could write books about the way you breathe."
your eyes open
and you sing out
a musical laugh
you mutter that
i'm crazy
with a teasing smile
playing on your lips
if only you knew
